He said he's a registered Republican and usually votes that way. Ray said she's a Democrat.
Anyway, I hope someone can ask Ben (or Ray) tomorrow if he knows what party affiliation Howard is. He's been all over the place, left and right, so your guess is as good as mine as to what party Howard joined.
I'll try to call, but I imagine it'll be busy.

howard is in between

At one point Howard was a Libertarian. I don't know if he is a card carrying member anymore, but he still seems to be swayed in that direction based on his various social/political rants on the show.

I think that he just goes with the person that he considers to be best, without having to follow party lines.

My take on Howard's politics are pretty simple. Normally, for local and state wide politics, he tends to lean more towards The Republicans, but when it comes to Nation Wide leadership, he leans to the Democrats.

Cheers!
